Career

Sosa began his career in Torneo Argentino B with Grupo Universitario, scoring thirteen goals in ninety-four appearances in four years with the club.[2] In 2013, Sosa joined fellow Torneo Argentino A team Tiro Federal.[2] Three goals in fifteen matches followed.[2] Argentine Primera División side Olimpo completed the signing of Sosa in September 2014.[1][2] He made his professional debut against Racing Club on 25 October, which was the first of three appearances for Olimpo in the 2014 season.[1] Sosa was selected in just one match in 2015, which preceded the midfielder departing to join Santamarina ahead of the 2016 Primera B Nacional campaign.[1]

His first goal in professional football arrived on 11 April 2016 during a win over Gimnasia y Esgrima.[1] On 1 August 2017, Sosa signed for Boca Unidos of Primera B Nacional.[1] After netting three times in twenty-three fixtures in 2017–18 as the club were relegated, Sosa agreed to join Argentine Primera División team Godoy Cruz in July 2018.[1][3][4]

In July 2019, Sosa moved to fellow league club Argentinos Juniors, signing a one-year deal.[5] In January 2022, he was loaned out to San Martín de Tucumán until the end of the year.[6]
